Planted Places, an online gardening supply store, sprung from the conviction that growing food at home, in small batches, is more nutritionally beneficial than purchasing from large grocery stores. However, starting a kitchen garden isn’t exactly child’s play. To create an easier entry point—especially for those living in apartments or homes without ample yard space—Planted Places developed quick-start organic herb kits, kitchen gardening kits, and their vertical gardening system, the Planted Wall.
Read on for more information on their offerings—and how to incorporate them into your own outdoor space:
Above: Growing your own food can be daunting. But one great way to begin cultivating your green thumb? Growing herbs. Planted Places’ Organic Herb Garden Kit ($69) comes with six certified organic seedlings—a combination of traditional herbs and edible flowers. The kit also provides felted grow pots and proprietary soil, ensuring a smooth start to your gardening journey. Above: Planted Places offers various Garden Kits, including Starter Garden in a Box ($65), which comes with 3 certified organic seedlings—a combination of seasonal herbs, leafy greens, and a floral. Additionally, the kit includes felted grow pots, proprietary organic MAGIC soil, organic soil amendments, and a microgreens kit. If that sounds like a lot, don’t fret—there are Grow Your Own Greens Mini-Course videos to walk you through the basics. Above: For those who want a kitchen garden but live in an apartment or home without ample yard space, Planted Places developed their space-saving vertical gardening solution, the Planted Wall. The Planted Wall includes a recirculating irrigation system that, they say, yields 99% water savings and 95% space savings—easier, even, than maintaining a raised bed. Above: The Planted Wall allows you to grow 18 plants in a 2′ x 2′ space. Add the back side of the wall to harvest a total of 36 plants. Pictured here is the Deluxe Wall, which comes with wheels for easy movement.
